Film - Live Action

In the climax of My Favorite Martian, Lizzie uses some alien tech to turn into an alien monster and take out two thugs beating up Ted. After gulping one of them down whole she lets out a loud burp, complete with an embarrased look afterward.

Return Of The Jedi. After the bounty hunter Boba Fett slides into the Sarlacc's mouth, it burps to show he's started to (to quote Jabba the Hutt) "find a new definition of pain and suffering" as he's "slowly digested over 1,000 years".

In the TV version of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal does this after eating a Vogon grandmother. Since the Guide entry animation is simplified by design, you need the burp to really hammer in the consumption. See this in action here.
